Migration questions
What is the replacement for the Cambium Networks PTP 650?
Cambium Networks's end-of-life bulletin names PTP 670 as the recommended migration path for the Cambium Networks PTP 650. The exact wording and any per-part-number mapping are in the linked bulletin.
Is the Cambium Networks PTP 650 end of life?
Cambium Networks support for the Cambium Networks PTP 650 has ended for some part numbers (last group runs to Sep 2022) — unsupported units need a plan. Full lifecycle dates by part number: https://eosl.ai/system/cambium-ptp-650/.
Is there a per-part-number replacement mapping for the PTP 650?
Yes — the bulletin maps replacements at the part-number level for 42 SKUs (for example C050065B005A → PTP 670). The full table is on this page.
Do I have to buy the Cambium Networks-recommended replacement?
No. The bulletin's named successor is Cambium Networks's suggested path, not an obligation. Teams also keep PTP 650 units running under third-party maintenance after the support cutoff, migrate to a different vendor, or run low-criticality units to failure with the risk documented. See the support-options guide for the trade-offs.
